Save the Date – Harmony in Food and Farming Conference

We are delighted to announce Harmony in Food and Farming, a two-day conference organised by the Sustainable Food Trust and taking place on the 10th and 11th July 2017 at Llandovery College, Wales.

In his book, ‘Harmony, A New Way of Looking at Our World’, The Prince of Wales shares his insights about the timeless laws and principles which permeate everything around and within us, an understanding of which can enable us to make better sense of the world in which we find ourselves. He also suggests that we will be best placed to address the climatic, ecological and public health challenges of our time, if our actions are informed by a deep understanding of these principles.

The conference is taking place at a significant moment, with current food and farming systems no longer serving the public interest, and a growing recognition of the need for a new and systemic approach which promotes the health of the planet and its people.

During the conference, our keynote speakers will explore the ways in which Harmony Principles manifest in food, agriculture and other spheres, including the environment, education, health and music. A range of parallel sessions will follow, in which speakers will share their insights about principles of Harmony in food and farming and other related fields. On the afternoon of the second day of the conference, there will be a series of field trips to local producers.
